Ham Gillett is the VT Act 148 Outreach Coordinator for two solid waste districts. He has more than 15 years of experience in solid waste and recycling, and is a certified VT Master Composter. Thirty years ago, he helped start a small solid waste/recycling company when Woodstock first mandated recycling. He was responsible for educating residents and businesses in several surrounding communities about recycling basics. More recently, Ham has sorted through trash on the National Mall, rotting restaurant food waste in the South Bronx, and chased a trash truck through multiple red lights in downtown Hartford, CT. He has spoken to numerous schools, businesses, and civic organizations about solid waste, recycling, hazardous waste, and composting issues.
